Is a solitary life good life to have to get away from Society? Does it mean a happier life in solitude?

Solitude will help cleanse the bullshit that comes up in life and helps you re-focus and reconnect with your feelings and what you care about, but realistically, there's no magic secrets to be learned. It's just you, doing your thing with less distractions. Do it for however long it makes sense to, to heal, rest from the insanity, and become happier again, but don't do it expecting to be a magic cure-all to your problems or the solution to life.

Depending on the kind of person you are, solitude can destroy you. You can still build yourself back up, but it's depressing sometimes.

That depends a lot on the person.

For me, looking back, I was happiest (post-broken-heart) when I was alone with few friends.

Frankly, I've always wanted to be independent from others' chaos. I've wanted to have my own electric and water supply with enough ground to grow quite a bit of my own food and to have an electric car powered by renewable energy at my home.

However, my wife had other plans and so now I must work until I die.

One thing that comforts me is I believe I am connected to every righteous person and animal on earth in the spiritual realm and I can bless them anytime I want by praying to God.

That is one way to lead yourself to depression.

Solitary confinement is the harshest punishment given out to prisoners. There's a reason for that.

Some people, it helps and some people it breaks it just depends on what kind of person they're really.

Do you mean isolating yourself from people?

[Stealthshadowninja]

Yes I do

[pink_blah]

@Stealthshadowninja isolating yourself will cause only harm

[TalynMere]

Not true. Deliberately shunning society and vowing never to speak to anyone again is bad and dumb and will only hurt you, but just opting-out for a while of all the intense ever-present social insanity is extremely healing and brings focus back into your life.

Constantly getting bogged down in everyone else's bullshit just causes stress.

@TalynMere thats what i meant
